<div class="field field-name-body field-type-text-with-summary field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even" property="content:encoded"><p>46 years ago today, guitarist Erik Brann, drummer Ron Bushy, bassist Lee Dorman, and singer/organist Doug Ingle – known collectively as Iron Butterfly – entered Ultrasonic Studios in Long Island, New York, and recorded the greatest gift to DJs with urinary tract infections in the history of rock ‘n’ roll radio: “In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida.”</p>
<p>Written by Ingle, the origins of the song’s title are a little sketchy, but the general consensus seems to be that Ingle was under the influence of something or other when he originally told Bushy the song’s title, and Bushy wrote down Ingle’s slurred words to the best of his ability. Whether it was originally intended to be called “In the Garden of Eden” or not, it hardly matters, because thanks to <em>The Simpsons</em>, everyone is forever going to presume that was the case, anyway.</p></div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-tags field-type-taxonomy-term-reference field-label-above"><div class="field-label">Tags:&nbsp;</div><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even" rel="dc:subject"><a href="/tags/in-a-gadda-da-vida" typeof="skos:Concept" property="rdfs:label skos:prefLabel" datatype="">In A Gadda Da Vida</a></div><div class="field-item odd" rel="dc:subject"><a href="/tags/happy-anniversary" typeof="skos:Concept" property="rdfs:label skos:prefLabel" datatype="">Happy Anniversary</a></div></div></div>Tue, 27 May 2014 20:09:48 +0000rhino5881 at http://www.rhino.com
